Hello all, I missed you! I got back into town Monday night but took two additional days off work so I could reconnect with Emerson and decompress after the insanity which is Bonnaroo.
I will be doing a full post on Bonnaroo 2011 – what I wore, who I saw, what I did but I just have to say this year was amazing. The splurge for VIP was well worth it. I totally felt my age this year, but not in a “woe is me, I am an old fogie” but more like, “I'm older than most folks here. I still rock, but I appreciate my creature comforts.” I went with my sister, our friend Sarah and my husband and I think we all had a great time without being utterly depleted and destroyed by the end of the festival thanks to VIP.
It was nice to come home to Emerson, who seems to have grown a foot and doubled her vocabulary since we left. Yesterday she got her first “real” haircut from my stylist Kathleen at Bananas Hair Salon and I think she looks like a blonde toddler version of Amelie. ๐ What's also nice about a vacation is that you come home and look at your house with fresh eyes. I have to say I love my home, it's so cozy and personal and it felt good to sleep in my own bed again!
Thanks suds, I always appreciate reader feedback!
I like the dress….imho I dont think those shoes are doing anything for you. Constructive crit…otherwise you look adorable!
This dress looks like a watercolor painting! So pretty. I like how the belt toughens it up a bit, too! (Welcome back from bonaroo! sounds like you had an amazing time!)
Thanks so much Taliah!
Thank you!
Thanks Jil! I never get why people who don’t like my blog keep coming back and commenting… I just see it as additional traffic. Keep the traffic coming Sandy, love you! <3

Thanks Rachel!
Thanks for visiting… again!
Thank you!
Wellcome back! I was looking forward to read you again. I’m glad you had a good time at Bonnaroo.
Yikes. Please put your chubby legs away!
Wow, gorgeous colors/print!
Thanks Audi! I think as I get used to this post-kid body I am gaining back my confidence and edge!
Ooh, great look! I love how you’re bringing a little bit of edge into your outfits lately.
LOL I am currently reading an Isabella Blow biography and am in the part where she discovered and promoted McQueen. Thank you for such a wonderful compliment! I was thinking Audi would like this look… ๐
This is a very McQueen-looking outfit, and I love it! Looking forward to the Bonnaroo update.
It hasn’t been awful, though at Bonnaroo I did a lot of bandannas like headbands and on occasion I do have to use a Bobby pin to hold them back. ๐
Thanks Hope! I missed blogging and you readers!
Yippee! Great to have you back. I absolutely love that dress on you, you really look great!
It makes me happy that your look that good growing out. I have straight across bangs, and will probably keep them a bit longer, but it is nice to know they will transition nicely!
Yep, think they are too hard to manage in this heat and humidity. By time I got to work they were flipped in 7 different directions. I will kept some, just sideswept. ๐
I love the purple and the green colors in this dress. Are you gowing your bangs out? I like the side swept look too.
